BUREAU OF NATURALIZATION 



AMERICANIZATION ACTIVITIES. 

Since June 30, 1917, the greatest imaginable reaction lias begun 
throughout the United States upon many subjects. This reaction 
has been caused by the increased feelmgs of loyalty which the events 
of the war have brought uppermost in the minds of the citizenry of the 
country. Patriotism has been quickened all along the line. The 
sense of individual responsibility has been brought to the fore. Com- 
munities have banded together in every conceivable manner to lend 
their support and do their bit in a large way in the maintenance of 
the war for democracy. 

Front and foremost above all these activities that are of an endur- 
ing character is Americanism. Americanism has evidenced itself in 
the imity of the Nation upon the main issue. It has stamped itself 
upon all the activities for the maintenance of the war. It has 
stirred up the very roots of the national entity, and again demon- 
strated that in a democracy, and in a democracy alone, can the 
highest ideals of self-government be manifested. 

As one great family the people of America have suddenly become 
cemented. Peoples of all nationalities and of aU races have volun- 
tarily welded themselves into a single gigantic potential force for the 
maintenance of those principles upon which this Nation has been 
built. 

Out of all of this has come the thought of looking to the founda- 
tion of this political structure. Is the citizenry of this country, as 
it is being added to, receiviQg the material necessary to go into this 
foundation? The question has not been confined to those who 
come into the new structure by the process of naturalization. It 
contemplates with equal clearness of vision those who come into 
citizenship responsibilities by the right of birth. The test is being- 
applied to both: Are they Americans in spirit as well as in form? 
Do those who claim the right of citizenship as a heritage receive* 
the training adequate to the assumption of the responsibili- 
ties of that highest of all professions, the profession of self-govern- 
ment ? The environment of the children of the land has been closely 
scrutinized. American eyes with the American conscience and 
American patriotism have been viewing the situation over, inspired 
by a sense of not only loyalty to the Nation but of protection of the 
rights of those who in the law are still infants. What has been found ? 
Section after section of the country has been disclosed as being under 
the dommation not of American institutions of government but of 
the most inimical forms of foreign autocracy. In many cities children 
by the thousands hav^e been found who have not been allowed, the

inherent ris:ht to speak in the schools of their training in the Enghsh 
tongue. They have been taught in a foreign tongue. They have 
been disciplined for failure to use the foreign tongue. They have 
been trained to sing the patriotic airs of countries other than the 
country of their birth. They have been taught so that they would 
grow up to a fii-m conviction that righteous government alone could 
be achieved by some other form than that which is here created and 
carried on by all of us. 

Judicial and legislative notice has been taken of this situation. 
Legislative bodies of all degrees of influence and authority have arisen 
and denounced it. The natural, and in this instance the proper, char- 
■acterization has been given to this state of affairs. A repudiation 
lias resulted throughout the length and breadth of the land. The 
voice of protest has been raised, demanding a complete extermi- 
nation from the ranks of the secondary schools of the teaching 
of any other than our native language. To institutions of higher 
learning must remain the instruction in the German language to 
•enable it to be read. The necessity for the study of other languages 
for research purposes in the sciences may be held necessary ; but for 
four years practically no scientific literature has come to this country 
from the central European powers at least, and during the last 18 
months, notwithstanding this lack of supply from that source, which 
is extolled by certain minds as the only source from which scientifi- 
guidance may come to this country, America has equaled if not out, 
stripped the Central Powers in scientific achievement. The ex- 
traction of nitrates from the atmosphere for munitions and other pur- 
poses and the scientific combination of gases to combat the poison- 
lachrymal, and other gases destructive of human life and gasas to 
render these agents of human destruction innocuous have been most 
successful. 

Since this Nation has been at war with the German Government, 
without the aid of that country and with no access to its recent litera- 
ture — for there is none that is open to the public — our scientific re- 
search and development in industrial enterprise have made such 
strides that this country is ready to engage extensively in these varied 
arts as soon as the plants now engaged in the manufacture of muni- 
' tions can be relieved to turn to the pursuits of peace. If the powers 
that have been set in motion and have accomplished these results 
retain their vigor after the war,' America will retain the position in 
the scientific world as well as in the moral world, in which latter it is 
to-day the political leader among the family of nations. 

Regarding those who are coming into the political foundation of 
the Nation oy the process of naturalization, no less thoughtful and 
patriotic consideration has been given. The influence started by the 
President by his address at the memorable reception to the 20,000 
newly made and older citizens at Philadelphia on May 10, 1915, has 
grown in strength and been developed by the progress of events since 
that time. As stated in the annual reports heretofore, this speech is 
the keynote for all the Americanization work since that time. For 
the purpose of focusing the attention of the American public upon 
this great necessity of a greater Americanization the waves of influ- 
ence put into motion by the President in that and other addresses 
never have ceased to be felt. The Americanization committees organ- 
ized as the immediate result of that reception predicated their organ- 
ization upon the expressions of the President. Americanization

gatherings of some character have been held in nearly every com- 
munity in the United States. From large mass meetings to small 
committee meetings has been sent broadcast propaganda containing 
Utopian ideas impractical of accomplishment, along with sane and 
practical plans, of which many have been inaugurated with success. 
In less than three months after the Philadelphia utterances referred 
to the public schools responded to the appeals of this bureau for the 
organization of classes to teach the foreigners who are candidates for 
citizenship. Each year has witnessed an increase in the number of 
classes formed for this purpose. Tliese classes have been stimulated 
by the ever-increasing interest of the public. The dail}^ and period- 
ical press has devoted many columns to the stimulation of American- 
ization and Americanism. Committees have been organized in prac- 
tically every community of the United States, including State and 
county organizations, all of which are both directly and indirectly 
aiding the Bureau of Naturalization and the public schools in the 
accomplishment of this great purpose. Each year there has been an 
increased resounding of the note Americanism. Educators have been 
intently striving to meet the responsibilities which this movement of 
the Bureau of Naturalization has thrown upon them. Chambers of 
commerce have organized Americanization committees extensively, 
so that there is scarcely a commercial or business organization of the 
Nation that is not represented. These organizations no longer retain 
a formal character. In increasing numbers they are now assuming a 
potential, active forcefulness which is both indicative of the realiza- 
tion of the vital nature of Americanization and of the original purposes 
of the organization. Accomplishment of the purposes of the organ- 
izations for Americanization work appears now to be gripping the 
members of these organizations, whereas heretofore the ideal has been 
the influence bringing them together. CTiurches also have gone 
beyowd the ideal. They are organizing definite programs for personal 
Americanization work by botli the mmistry and the laity regardless of 
denominational lines. AH of these forces are and have been in direct 
touch with the Bureau of Naturalization from time to time since, in 
1915, on the occasion referred to, the wave of Americanism began to 
extend over the country from the City of Brotherly Love, the seat of 
American Independence.- At this reception the presiding ofiicer, 
Mayor Rudolph Blankenburg, a native of Germany, a naturalized 
American citizen, presided. Mayor Blankenburg stated, wdien the 
reception was proposed to him by an ofiicinl of the Bureau of Natural- 
ization, that he was proud to be an American; that he felt he was a 
better American than some who by the accident of birth were born on 
American soil, because he chose to be an American. Rudolph 
Blankenburg was naturalized exactly five years after the day he 
arrived in the United States. On the occasion of that reception there 
were four citizens of the Ignited States who addressed the gathering; 
two of these were native-born Americans and two first saw the light 
of day in other countries. Such a union of forces addressed to such 
ideals as are to be found in the word Americanization could but result 
in the nation-wide fruition of to-day. America is dedicated to its 
own Americanization, and is manifesting that dedication through 
every avenue of speech and activity. 

The public schools of the ITnited States have had a complete recog- 
nition of their w^ork in many ways. The Americanization features of 
the National Education Association convention in Portland, Oreg., in 



6 WORK OP THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS 

1917, were pronounced most fruitful both in effective demonstration 
and later results. Its convention at Pittsburgh in 1918 subordinated 
all other subjects to that of Americanization. In fact, the Pitts- 
burgh convention of the National Education Association was char- 
acterized as an Americanization convention of school people. 

Judicial recognition was referred to in the last annual report in the 
continuance of 31,210 petitioners for naturalization, largely on the 
ground of ignorance and unfitness to assume the responsibilities of 
American citizenship. A further recognition of this national under- 
taking of the public schools with the Bureau of Naturalization in 
upbuilding the citizenry of the country is found in the continuance 
during the year imder review of 46,519 petitioners by the courts for 
the same cause. 

This indicated clearly the crying need for the equipment of the 
public schools and the perfection of the social organization of each 
community, so that these thousands of seekers after American citizen- 
ship might become fitted for that privilege. Heretofore 75 per cent 
of the applicants for naturalization have been ascertained to be below 
the standard, which wHl mean an addition of a virile force to the body 
politic. Since 1906 there have been 861,819 who have been admitted 
to citizenship upon direct application, and an equal number of wives 
and children have derived citizenship from the act of the petitioner. 
Following this average through, and the average has been higher down 
to and including the last fiscal year, it will be seen that about 1,250,000 
have had the title of citizenship conferred upon them without justi- 
fying the Nation in any belief that its ability for self-government 
has been increased thereby. Surveys have been made from time to 
time to ascertain the participation in the various rights of American 
citizenship by native and foreign born citizens. In one large city a 
survey showed that of the first 7 prominent business men approached 
none had registered. Of the 80 preachers who were requested to 
state whether they had voted or registered, 12 had registered and 6 
of them had voted. Among the foreign-born citizens and newly 
naturalized 97 per cent had registered and voted. Such surveys as 
this show the vital necessity of supporting the public schools in their 
endeavors to perfect their cooperative efforts with this bureau. 
There were 151,449 petitioners admitted during the last year; 63,993 
of these were soldiers, leaving 87,456 who received citizenship under 
the general provisions of the law, with 46,519 whose petitions were 
deferred because of insufficient knowledge to enable them to be other 
than citizens in name only. The excess of petitions above the 
151,449 represents those filed prior to July 1, 1917, and which were 
deferred upon hearing after that date. 

The cause of the increased number of refusals by the court to 
admit the candidate for citizenship upon the first hearing of his 
petition is due to the fact that a larger number of the judges of 
courts who exercise naturalization jurisdiction give recognition to 
the courses which the public schools are adopting and standardizing 
under the joint relationship between them and the Bureau of Natural- 
ization authorized by Congress. Prior to May 9, 1918, this relation- 
ship was the natural outgrowth of the authority of the Bureau of 
Naturalization over all matters concerning the naturalization of 
aliens. There is no other governmental agency that has or can have 
the contact with the alien population of the entire Nation which 
the Bureau of Naturalization has in its relations with the candidates

for citizenship. This general authority, in the estimation of the bu- 
reau, was wholly adequate to the purpose, but in the view of many 
cooperating with it was felt not to be a satisfactory recognition of so mo- 
mentous a subject as citizenship. This spirit was expressed by school 
men and school women, by the judges of the courts of naturalization, 
by numberless organizations of all kinds, and by legislators, both 
State and National. The natural result of this united expression of 
thought among truly American institutions has been met by a law 
specifically recognizing this national undertaking and patriotic en- 
deavor of the public schools to cooperate with this bureau, authoriz- 
ing the bureau to continue its work and to promote the training and 
education of the candidates for citizenship by the public schools. 

For years the public schools have appealed to this bureau for a 
standard course in citizenship instruction. These appeals came con- 
currently with the pledge of the superintendents of schools to organize 
classes for teaching the millions who are coming into American citi- 
zenship. Acting under this general authority, and to meet the need 
so urgently and insistently presented, the public schools were re- 
quested to furnish the material for such a book of instruction. 
Before this book was ready for publication Congress authorized, by 
the act of May 9, 1918, its distribution and the payment for its 
publication out of the naturalization fees paid into the Treasury of 
the United States by the aliens seeking citizenship. At the same 
time that Congress gave this authority to the Bureau of Naturaliza- 
tion it also authorized it to promote — by carrying on in the public 
schools the Americanization work which it had undertaken under the 
general authority of Congress — the training and instruction in 
citizenship responsibilities of applicants for naturalization. 

There is abroad now throughout the land, as shown by many of the 
leading articles in the press, both daily and periodical, a definite con- 
clusion that there should be a central bureau of the Federal Govern- 
ment whose function and province should be the assimilation, through 
duly authorized State and municipal agencies, of the entire foreign 
population, in so far as the permanent foreign-born resident is con- 
cerned. It is believed that this demand will result in favorable 
legislative action, A bill (S. 4792) for the creation in the Department 
of Labor of a Bureau of Citizenship and Americanization has been 
introduced by Senator William H. King, of Utah. The bill has for 
its objective not only the assimilation of foreigners who have estab- 
lished a per.manent residence within the Nation but also to arouse 
within the minds of all citizens and permanent residents a higher 
regard for the privileges and responsibilities of American citizenship. 
Such an enlargement of the Bureau of Naturalization can be effected 
at a minimum expense, and in so doing avoid that bane of all govern- 
mental organization, the overlapping of functions, the duplication of 
work, and the consequent perpetuation in a new organization of 
features of the governmental organizations heretofore created — a 
situation every administrative officer strives to his utmost to avoid. 
This bill has been approved by the Secretary, as shown by the ac- 
companying copy of letter: 

Department of I-abor, 

Office of the Secretary, 

Washington, September 12, J 918. 

My Dear Sena^tor: Your letter of the 5th instaut has been received, with which 
vou forwarded a copy of the bill (Senate No. 4792) introduced by you "to establish in 



8 WORK OP THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS 

the Department of Labor a Bureau of Citizenship and Americanization, for the 
Araerica,nization of natiualized citizens, and for other purposes." 

You state that you have felt for some time that the scope of the Bureau of Natural- 
ization should be enlarged, and that it has become quite apparent, and made more 
manifest since the war began, that we have failed som.ewhat in our duty towards those 
who have come from other lands and sought homes in this Republic, and that some 
measmes should be adopted to instil the spirit of our institutions of government into 
the minds of those who permanentlv reside in this country. You also express the 
belief that the Department of Labor 'is better equipped than any other agency of the 
Government to carry on the work so necessary to the Araericanization_ of those who 
seek citizenship in our land, and express a desire to have the views of this department 
upon the measm-e which you have submitted. 

The Bureau of Natiualization is now carrying on a portion of the work contem- 
plated by this bill, through the cooperation of the public schools, in nearly 2,000 cities 
and towns throughout the United States. Your conclusion appears, therefore, to be 
correct, since the Bureau of Naturalization of this department is already equipped for 
this work by specific legislative provisions in the naturalization law. As no other 
governmental organization has been authorized by law or could be created to exert 
the same nation-wide activity along these lines without the appropriation of a large 
sum of money, it would seem to be in the interest of governmental economy to enlarge 
the scope of this bureau rather than to create elsewhere what must necessarily in some 
sense be a du})licate organization. 

The measvue has been carefully considered and the attainment of its objects and 
purposes, the betterment of the citizenry, will undoubtedly result, both among the 
native and foreign born. Not only will this be true of the body politic, but it should 
serve the purpose of the assimilation into that body of a more enlightened member- 
ship from among the foreign-bom seekers after American citizenship by naturaliza- 
tion. It should also serve to stimulate local interest in the betterment of the con- 
ditions throughout the country of the permanent residents of foreign birth and enable 
the latter at an early date to achieve their natural goal, which, it is believed, is the 
establishment of an American home for themselves and their children and uniting 
with their neighbors in the responsibilities of American citizenship. 

In approving, therefore, the main objects of the proposed legislation, it should be 
understood that the question of reorganization of the Bureau of Natiu-alization of this 
department along the lines proposed is one of policy to be determined by the legis- 
lative branch of the Government. The extension of naturalization jurisdiction to 
the United States District Coxirt of the Panama Canal Zone is also one which should 
be given careful legislative consideration in order that its desirability may be fully 
determined before the final inclusion of this provision in the bill. 

Certain minor amendments have been indicated with the return of the measure, 
which are shown in the new draft. 
Very truly, yours, 

W. B. "N'^'ILSON, 

Secretary. 
Hon. William H. King, 

United States Senate, Washington. D. C. 

Another authority which Congress conferred upon the bureau in 
aid of the national undertaking in Europe was a new code of 
procedure by which recognition should be given to certain foreign 
residents of the country. This recognition consisted in a code 
of procedure that eliminated the delays so necessary in the gen- 
eral provisions of the naturalization law. The requirement for 
posting petitions for naturalization for at least 90 days before the 
court could acquire jurisdiction of them for the purposes of admitting 
the applicant to citizenship was so changed as to admit of the hear- 
ing of the petition for naturalization filed by members of certain 
enumerated exempted classes without any delay, the time for hearing 
being dependent only upon the convenience of the court. 

The act of May 9, 1918, authorized petition for naturalization and 
immediate hearing for any alien who serves in the military or naval 
branches of the Government, upon any United States vessel, any 
vessel of the American merchant marine, or anyone honorably dis- 



WITH THE BUBEAU OF NATTTBALIZATION. 9 

•charged from the National Guard of any State, Territory, or the Dis- 
trict of Columbia, within six months after honorable discharge there- 
from. It repealed the provisions of the law that previously extended 
the right of an alien to petition for naturalization after an honorable 
discharge from the military or naval branches of the Government at 
a,ny time after such honorable discharge, and with few exceptions 
reduced the period of time to six months after such service and hon- 
orable discharge. The provisions of the law heretofore existing were 
saved to those holding honorable discharges from the military service 
where the service was performed prior to January 1, 1900. This pro- 
vision was included in the law for the distinct purpose of preserving 
to the veterans of the Civil and Spanish-American wars the rights 
which previously had been given to them. The number of aliens 
now holding discharges from military service prior to the date stated 
who have not applied for and received American citizenship is small 
And constantly being reduced. 

To accomplish the provisions of this code of procedure it was neces- 
sary to create a corps of examiners to aid in tne administration of a 
new statute under conditions wholly strange and different from those 
ordinarily prevailing. The law requires, very properly, that each 
candidate for naturalization whose immediate hearing is contemplated 
shall appear before a representative of this bureau before filing his 
petition for naturalization. This particular provision has made it 
possible for the machinery of the law to operate with the minimum 
of friction. Indeed, there has been no friction at any point in this 
new code. The War Department presented the largest number of 
candidates for naturalization under the new law. Their location and 
distribution was general throughout the United States, extending 
from points in Maine throughout the country to the Pacific coast, in 
the various cantonments. Army camps, posts, and military stations. 
So insistent was the demand for immediate action to naturalize the 
soldiers of foreign birth in our ranks in order to enable units to move 
solidly and prevent dismemberment that the bureau detailed imme- 
diately such of its experienced officers as it could spare to take imme- 
diate charge of instructing the newly appointed examiners, even 
though their removal from their regular stations resulted in embar- 
rassments to courts, court officials, and thousands of candidates for 
naturalization under the general provisions of the law. From vari- 
ous sources throughout the United States inen qualified in law and 
tvpewriting were nominated by citizens interested in accomplishing 
this great need for our military forces. In less than two weeks the 
process of naturalization had begun in many of the cantonments, 
and by the end of June 63,993 soldiers had become entitled to all of 
the rewards of the American soldier by having citizenship conferred 
upon them. The necessity for this legislation was clearly shown by 
the report of the Provost Marshal General, from which it appears 
that there were 123,277 soldiers not naturalized. This total com- 
prised 76,545 foreigners who had not declared their intention and 
46,732 declarants. These foreign-born residents of the United States, 
nondeclarants and declarants, had not claimed exemption from 
military service because of their alienage; but unless he could claim 
full American citizenship none of them, however valiantly he might 
fight, could receive a commission as an officer, which is the laudable 
ambition of every soldier.

In conducting this naturalization work in the Army camps too 
much praise can not be given to the cooperation which the officers of 
the Army gave to the Naturalization Service. In every camp, Army 
post, and station the commanding officer invariably detailed a suffi- 
cient number of soldiers, qualified in a clerical caj)acity, to perform 
the duties of filling in the necessary forms, pre;paring the affidavits, 
and transcribing the subject matter into the petitions for naturaliza- 
tion and certificates of naturalization. If it had not been for the aid 
which the Army rendered in this work it would have been impossible 
to have accomplished the naturalization of these, soldiers of foreign 
birth. The number of soldiers detailed is shown in the accompanying 
table. It is estimated that it would have cost in the neighborhood 
of $41,096 to secure the services of clerks in civil life to perform this 
work. The amount estimated as necessary to the employment of 
these clerks and shown in the reports of the Senate and House Com- 
mittees on Immigration and Naturalization was $152,300 for salaries 
and $39,500 for traveling expenses. The soldier naturalization work 
completely disrupted the other naturalization work that arose in the 
courts unSer the general provisions of the naturalization law, almost

the entire force of naturalization examiners being necessary for the 
task. The soldiers naturalized were those between the age limits of 
21 and 31. If, as seems likely, Congress changes the age limits both 
down and up, it will cause at once an additional burden for the 
Naturalization Service and undoubtedly will necessitate increased 
appropriation for a larger number of naturalization examiners. The 
report of the Provost Marshal General gives a possibility of 487,713 
aliens under the first age limitations, and it is believed that this 
will be more than doubled when the Army has been recruited to its 
maximum.

An important provision of the act of May 9, 1918, had for its pur- 
pose the relief for those subjects of the Central Powers who are able 
to establish their loyalty to the United States. Ever since the States 
of Indiana, Missouri, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Arkansas, 
and Texas have been admitted to statehood, aliens have been allowed 
to vote under the constitutions of these vStates upon the making of 
their declarations of intention to become citizens of the United States. 
[n several other States this condition prevailed, but in recent years 
there have been such changes in the constitutions of all of the States, 
except the seven named, that the franchise is limited to American 
citizens. With the operation of the provisions of the law requiring 
alien enemies to register there were disclosures of hundreds oi thou- 
sands of loyal residents of the United States who believed themselves 
to be citizens but were found never to have completed their natural- 
ization. Cases have been reported of unnaturalized foreign-born 



12 WORK OF THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS 

residents of the United States who have lived here over 70 vears; 
persons who were brought here as infants by their parents and who 
settled in those States where foreigners have always enjoyed the 
right of franchise. Instances were shown of those who had fought in 
the Civil War ; where they had held offices of trust and responsibility, 
both of an elective and appointive nature, such as members of the 
State legislatures, mayors, judges, postmasters, and in other capacities. 
The registration required of persons born in the Central Powers who 
had not completed their American citizenship disclosed the most 
shocking state of affairs. Men and women who have their children 
and grandchildren in the military forces of the United States were 
disclosed as being not only aliens but enemy aliens, with no means 
for removing the stigma. Section 2171 of the Revised Statutes of 
the United States precluded the naturalization of any citizen, sub- 
ject, or denizen of any sovereignty with which the United States 
might be at war, during the time of the war. The appeals that 
came from these deserving Americans, citizens in all respects save 
the title, caused Congress to provide the means for their relief. In 
doing this, however, it placed the maximum safeguards around the 
citizenry of the Nation by giving to the Bureau of Naturalization 
the right to prevent the naturalization of any person who under the 
law is an alien enemy by an objection in open court to the conferring 
of AJmerican citizenship upon him. No cause need be assigned, but 
the objection of the Government through its lawful representatives is 
declared by this act to be sufficient cause for the continuance of the 
petition from time to time so long as the Government may desire. 

There should be early action taken by the legislatures of the 
States named to restrict the right of franchise to American citizens 
only, and it is understood that the sentiment in all of these States is 
ripe for this action. The bureau has addressed letters to the gov- 
ernors of these States requesting that at the earhest practicable 
moment there be submitted to the voters of the States suitable 
amendments to the constitutions to accomphsh this purpose.' One 
provision which the act did not carr;^ into law, but which should be 
enacted at an early date, is that to give legal evidence of citizenship 
to those who secure that status through the act of the husband and 
father. There is an average of more than one person who secures 
citizenship in this way for each petitioner for naturahzation. Un- 
necessary hardship and embarrassment follow the challenge to estab- 
hsh American citizenship gained by the son through the naturaliza- 
tion of the father. There is pending in the House of Representatives 
a bill having for its purpose the authorization of these certificates of 
United States citizenship; it should become law as soon as it can be 
enacted. This bill (H. R. 12558) was introduced by Representative 
Albert Johnson, of Washington. 

Each year the bureau has reported many interesting instances of 
appreciation on the part of countless numbers of foreigners of the 
opportunity which the pubhc schools are now affording them to 
receive aid to the reaUzation of their hopes and desires to become 
citizens of the United States. For years the conclusion has been 
prevalent among the thinking pubhc that foreigners of the age of 35, 
or at most 40 years and upwards, have not the capacity for acquir- 
ing a knowledge of our tongue. The reports from school superin- 
tendents from all parts of the country show foreigners, both men and

women, illiterates in their own tongue, of 50, 60, and 70 years of age, 
who have enrolled themselves upon the school rosters and who have 
acquired a working mastery of our language. The oldest student of 
record is in one of the Texas public schools. In this school a Rus- 
sian 83 years old, illiterate, and upon enrollment without a knowledge 
of English, acquired during one term of school a fair knowledge of 
the English language and a knowledge of reading, writing, and 
arithmetic. 

Despite the fact of the tremendous burden thrown upon every 
citizen of the United States by reason of the war necessities, both in 
the demand upon the man power for military service and woman 
power for hospital and allied work, there has been no diminution in 
the interest manifested nationally in the public. school work and the 
responsibility of the pubhc schools in the particular department of 
training adults for citizenship responsibility. Indeed the interest 
has been greater than even before. Through all the vicissitudes of a 
hard winter, with coal shortages everywhere, every effort was made 
to continue the classes for citizenship training. Classes adjourned 
from school buildings to private residences, to club rooms, and in 
industrial plants rooms were set aside for the use of the pubhc school 
authorities to carry on this most essential work. This work of the 
Bureau of Naturalization in cooperation with the public schools 
means the production of the highest efficiency by the individual at 
a time when everyone is needed to his maximum. It means the pro- 
duction of more munitions, more shells, more powder, more nitrate, 
more steel, more ores of all kinds. It means a lessening of the 
interference of the operation of the machines to have the unskilled 
labor possess some skill at least in the use and understanding of our 
tongue. It means a reduction of the number of unnecessary em- 
ployees in various capacities as interpreters, and releasing them from 
this unnecessary occupation to vocations of greater actual produc- 
tivity. It means a reduction in the expense due to a lack of under- 
standing of our written words of warning and to the spoken words 
both of warning and instruction. It means an elevation of the 
laboring man from the position of a mere automaton, doing what he 
is compelled to do and with no understanding, no point of contact, 
no opportunity of mingling his thoughts and words and ideas with 
those with whom he is surrounded. In short, it means taking the 
normal human being out of the class of the deaf mute or despised 
mental cripple — the mere automaton, the mere machine, in doing or 
not doing this or that— and placing him upon a plane of human under- 
standing, thought, and individual action. It means the confirmation 
of a right inherent in all, if the fundamental principles of this country 
are to be applicable to the individual and he is to be considered 
equal in the eyes of the law to those in more secure and better posi- 
tions in life. It means the opening of a door to a field of oppor- 
tunity, which to keep closed is a reproach to all things American and 
to Americanization itself. It means for these people the right to 
realize that they are contributing their part in the worldwide struggle 
for human equality. It means that they are getting in America, 
even before the Nation's international struggle is finished, what 
they should get in America first and before it is possible to 
obtain it in any other country. It means that they will get the help 
to live as Americans live. To live as Americans live is to have the 



14 WORK OF THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS 

means witllin each individual to comprehend and enjoy the fruits of 
the individual liberty which is to be found only in a democracy. It 
means that these foreigners here in our midst are being accorded 
that which is the inherent right of every person, man, woman, or 
child, living in this country, whether he be of foreign or native birth. 

It is no answer to say that the foreign-born residents of this 
country should not be given the opportunity to equip themselves 
to discharge fully the responsibilities of citizenship simply because 
America has been remiss, and to-day still is remiss, in giving to the 
native-born citizens the opportunity which the founders of our Gov- 
ernment made it mandatory upon this generation to give freely and 
fully. It is upon this generation to see to it that illiteracy is com- 
pletely exterminated from the territory of the United States, whether 
that territory be on the mainland, in the organized territories, or 
•elsewhere under its jurisdiction. The mainland has had an example 
given to it of the possibilities of united and concerted action upon 
this great national curse. In the Philippine Islands illiteracy was 
the established order prior to American occupation. Under , the 
administration by the Federal Government of the affairs of the 
Philippine Islands the foundation for the banishment of illiteracy 
was completely laid. Kapid strides were at once made toward the 
end that within a decade after the completion of the system no 
illiterates would come from the rising generation. What can be 
done among barbarians and savages — even of the cannibalistic 
type — ^under the jurisdiction of the United States, surely can be 
done among those who are in daily contact with and vitally connected 
with the affairs of those who have a full knowledge and make daily 
use of our tongue. This contact prevails in every State of the Union, 
and in nearly every county in every State, and it includes the Terri- 
tories of Alaska, Hawaii, Porto Rico, and the Panama Canal Zone. 

Legislation is pending in Congress which contemplates the exten- 
sion of the naturalization laws to the Panama Canal Zone. If this be 
enacted into law, it should be with the full vision of the possibilities 
of the upward influences which this country has set into motion, and 
which can be brought directly to fruition by establishmaent in that 
intermediate point between the governments to the south of the 
United States. 

Should the naturalization laws be extended to the Canal Zone, the 
beneficent results that would follow the establishment there of 
citizenship classes and the results that could be accomplished in 
five years would mean the obliteration of the use of foreign tongues 
on the zone, equipping each and every utility on the zone with our 
tongue, and would place before the Central and South American 
Republics an example which would have a greater stim.ulating effect 
toward removing the root of the disturbances south of the Rio Grande 
than any other single act. 

The progress toward the adjustment of the internal affairs of 
;any country are in proportion to the intelligence and understand- 
ing of its citizenr3^ There are other nations of the world with a 
higher percentage of literacy, but there is no nation with the vast 
citizenry of this Nation with the number of illiterates so small or the 
weight of intelligence so great. The potentiality that will be set into 
motion by the extension to the Panama Canal Zone of naturalization 
jurisdiction and the establishment there by the public schools of a

joint activity with the Bureau of NaturaKzation for the good of the 
peoples of tlie Western Hemisphere can not be computed. There 
should be no independent establishment of the naturalization laws 
there without the concurrent establishment of school relationships 
with the Bureau of Naturalization. 

There is no other machinery possible of construction that would 
appeal to the American mind, that will leave the rights of the States 
over their schools free and untrammeled, than the relationship which 
this bureau has built up with the public schools. The foundation of 
this relationship is the contact which the Federal Government has 
through the Bureau of Naturalization with the sixteen or seventeen 
millions of foieigners who reside permanently in the United States. 
All of these permanent residents may be approached legitimately 
upon the subject of assuming American citizenship. In this state- 
ment the bureau desires to have its position clearly understood, to 
have its position in the past viewed in the light of present events and 
its action to be consistent with its policies as heretofore announced. 
The bureau, with the approval of the Secretary, has adopted and, 
with no intention of departing therefrom, is still holding to the policy 
of no Federal propaganda for American citizens; of no step toward 
American citizenship by any foreign-born resident of this country 
except upon his own independent individual volition. It still adheres 
to that policy, and believes that to be the only policy which the 
Federal Government can adopt. It believes that it is the duty as well 
as the right of the municipalities, towns, and communities in which 
the foreign-born permanent resident lives to do all within their power to 
quicken and arouse in his mind thoughts upon the subject of American 
citizenship for himself. It is not to be denied by any that the perma- 
nent foreign-born resident of the United States has within him the call 
of American citizenship. Twenty-five per cent of the foreign-born 
population have sought and obtamed citizenship. The other 75 per 
cent — and this proportion is subject to investigation to determine the 
exactness of the figures — are prospective applicants for citizenship. 

It is the right of each community to present in the most attractive 
form the actual value of citizenry in the country of his permanent 
residence to the foreign-born permanent resident. This is true 
fundamentally, whether it be citizenship in the United States or in 
any other nation of the world. Accepting this premise, the com- 
mimity may place in vivid contrast the paternal nature of this 
Government, the individual helpfulness, protection, and advantage 
which the institutions of our Government hold and extend to its 
citizens. It may, and should, go to the limit in this policy, in order 
that the permanent resident may choose to be an American citizen 
and take the step to that estate, or may signify unequivocally that 
he desires to continue his allegiance to the autocracy or sovereignty 
abroad. If he should make the latter choice, it means that the 
local patriotism has failed to exemplify the advantages of American 
institutions of government over other forms of government. This 
conclusion must be inevitable, for no form of government has been 
as yet evolved by man that contains the elements of self-de^'elop- 
raent that is enjoyed under the Constitution as framed by the found- 
ers of this Republic. It will be a distmct reproach upon any com- 
munity that considers its plans for Americanization completed that 
any 'remaining within its corporate limits who intends to remain a 



16 WORK OF THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS 

permanent resident in the country which gives him this priceless 
opportunity should not have taken the steps toward dedicating his. 
me to our institutions of government. 

Beheving this, the bureau plans, under the specific authority given 
to it imder the act of May 9, 1918, to promote the training and in- 
struction for candidates for citizenship through the public schools, 
to offer the textbook to every foreigner in the United States. The 
law permits it to give the textbook to every candidate for citizenship 
who is in attendance upon the public schools — to them and to them only. 
The bureau will do all within its power, however, consistent with its 
Federal position, to arouse the local mind of each community to the 
point of a full, red-blooded Amercian campaign for bringing together 
the public schools and the adult foreigners, to the end that, under 
the best presentation possible, they may make the choice between 
their present allegiance and allegiance to the United States Govern- 
ment. The community should have its best citizens, both of foreign 
and native birth, unite in committees to go forward aggressively 
amongst those living in the foreign colonized groups, and carry to 
them the gospel of American citizenship unceasingly, imtil foreign 
colonization groups are only of historical interest — until, they are a 
thing of the past. These committees should be composed of women 
as weU as men. This has been found a necessity in all forward 
movements upon aU subjects. At the present time this necessity 
has been emphasized in a greater way than at any time heretofore. 
There is no groiiping, be it a Little Italy, a Little Greece, a Little 
Syria, a Little Hungary, or any or all other national groupings, 
where the foreign-born mothers of American soldiers will not be 
found in large numbers. American mothers whose boys are in the 
ranks, fighting probably shoulder to shoulder with the sons of foreign- 
bom mothers, will offer the means of most sympathetic contact. 
Foreign-bom fathers of American soldier boys will welcome the 
American-born fathers of the brothers in arms of their soldier sons, and 
will have a yearning for a broader identification as American citizens 
than they ever have felt before. Never before, and probably never 
again, will American citizenship be in such an exalted place in the minds 
of the permanent foreign-bom residents of the United States. The 
moment should not be lost; the duty is clear; the call is to a peaceful, 
pleasant, and profitable undertaking; one which will take the active 
participants from their firesides many evenings, but they will not 
be required to sleep in trenches or exercise the vigilance to protect 
their lives that their own children must do hourly on the other side. 
Must each community await the assault of the enemy in order to be 
stimulated to do its duty ? Is it too much to expect of all American 
communities that they will transform themselves into a unit of 
democracy, in order that the whole Nation may be democratized, 
while their man power and the flower of their womanhood are in 
foreign lands working the democratization of the entire world ? 

United action will accomplish this, and America at home will 
be able to do its duty. That duty is clearly defined. Its duty 
is to extend to each American soldier a welcome to an American 
speaking home, not to a Russian home, an Italian home, an Austrian 
home, a Hungarian homo, a French homCj or a British home, but to 
an American home, where the American English language is spoken

by the foreign-born father and mother in the homecoming welcome 
to the fully Americanized son. 

If in the past the spirit of America had been as intense and expres- 
sive as it should have been, and as it is now, its influence would nave 
extended far across the southern border and lessened, if not com- 
pletely avoided, the awful chaos in our sister Republic across the Rio 
Grande. During the past year El Paso, with 60,000 Mexicans per- 
manently residing within its corporate limits, has organized for the 
first time citizenship classes containing over 1,300 Mexican-born men 
and women. This is the result of the joint efforts of the Bureau of 
Naturalization and the superintendent of schools with the municipal 
authorities. Previously the attempt had been made to conduct the 
night classes, but without success. It appears that the only element 
lacking in the situation was the Federal Government and its aid. 
Heretofore the support has been but a moral support. With the 
coming year, under the specific authority given to this bureau by 
Congress, it will aid the schools of El Paso and carry on an aggressive 
campaign along the entire Mexican border for the establishment of 
schools in every community for the specific purpose of teaching the 
English language and American citizenship to those of Mexican birth 
who reside within their limits. This concentration of effort will be 
made from the Gulf of Mexico to the Pacific Ocean. The immediate 
result of this will be the betterment of labor conditions along the 
Mexican border and back into the American territory tributary 
to the international boundary. In El Paso, and in other points 
where the population is composed largely of Mexicans, the chief 
handicap and cause of this congestion is the inability of the 
Mexican to speak English. He is, therefore, naturally unable 
to leave his environment, and loath to do so because of this 
handicap. By providing him with this qualification he may be pre- 
vailed upon to go to other parts of the United States, where mining, 
agriculture, public construction, and other labor is needed. The 
social and moral envu'onment will be improved by the reduction of 
congestion. The economic conditions will be improved both at these 
congested points and at points where labor shortage exists. Crops 
which now can not be moved, but for which Mexican labor is erni- 
nently satisfactory, will be garnered. The influence which will 
extend across the border into Mexico from these residents of the 
United States of Mexican birth and origin can be none other than to 
stimulate a friendly interest in the minds of the masses in that coun- 
try and counteract the German and other influences known to be 
prevalent there. 

In furtherance, of this intensive plan throughout the United States, 
which the bureau believes is a responsibility belonging to each com- 
munity and each State, it has allied itself directly with the State coun- 
cils of defense in every State in the Nation, with the county councils 
of defense, with the Americanization committees of every community 
where they have been organized, whether they be committees of 
chambers of commerce, churches, industrial enterprises, or others. 
It has presented to them the necessity for carrying out this program. 
It is presenting a textbook to each foreigner when he files his declara- 
tion of intention, if he is in need of instruction and goes to the public 
schools. With the pubhc schools the bureau will effect a closer union 

98623—19 3 



18 ' WORE OF THE PUBLIC SOHOOi;^ 

by presenting a certificate of graduation, through the public-school 
authorities in each community, such certificate to be issued by the 
Federal Government through this bureau. This certificate of gradu- 
ation will be available only for those foreigners at the time they are 
petitioners for naturalization and after they have passed the adminis- 
trative examination required by law to be made by the representatives 
of the Government in the administration by this bureau of the naturali- 
zation laws. Such a certificate has been urged upon the bureau for 
years by the public schools, where the citizenship classes have been 
conducted in conjunction with this bureau. The bureau has not 
yielded to this urging heretofore, but in view of the specific authority 
given by Congress to it to promote the training of coming citizens 
by the public schools, it has done so, and will issue the certificate of 
graduation as indicated. Plans for the presentation of a certificate 
of graduation concurrently with the certificate of naturalization have 
been discussed and in many communities perfected. This plan con- 
sists in the impressive ceremonies of graduation from the public 
schools and into American citizenship, in the presence of State, 
municipal, and Federal officials, in order that the occasion of con- 
ferring the priceless heritage of American citizenship upon the for- 
eigners who divest themselves of their native allegiance may be one 
fitting such a momentous act. Numbers of communities have signi- 
fied their desire to inaugurate these ceremonies. 

The authority of Congress to promote training and instruction in 
citizenship by the public schools includes authorization to secure the 
aid and cooperation of all State organizations interested in this great 
Americanization problem. It also authorizes the Bureau of Natu- 
ralization to cooperate with those concerned with vocational educa- 
tion throughout the United States. Under this authority the plans 
of the bureau are to work with the National Board of Vocational 
Education and the public schools cooperating with that board to the 
end that the adult foreigners who are candidates for citizenship shall 
be given every facility for entering the vocational education classes, 
that the opportunities for securing training in the profession of self- 
government shall be opened to those who are securing training in the 
various vocations and trades necessary to their daily life. 

It is also authorized by specific provision to publish a monthly 
naturaUzation bulletin. This bulletm will be pubUshed under the 
name of "Citizenship" and contain two departments — the law de- 
partment and the school department. The law department will be 
devoted to the legal branch of the work of the Bureau of NaturaUza- 
tion and the school department to the advancement of the interests 
of training and educating the foreigners who are candidates for 
citizenship. This bulletin has been a necessity for years, but, as the 
bureau understands it, there is a law that prohibits the printing of 
periodical publications without specific authorization from Congress 
for their pubHcation. The bureau has heretofore had no such spe- 
cific authority. It has awaited the receipt of that authority from 
Congress. 

The plan heretofore pursued by the bureau of notifying school 
authorities of each community has been pursued during the year 
under review, as will be seen by a reference to the table containing 
the names of the cities and towns whose public schools are cooperating 
with it. The following table shows by months the number of places

Mass meeting were held in various parts of the country. These 
were all new places. Heretofore mass meetings have been reported 
as being held, but the communities have in so many places gotten 
beyond the mass meeting stage and have developed to the point of 
concerted action looking to the increase in the enrollment of the 
night classes that they have taken hold of the more serious steady 
work necessary in securing the maximum of attendance. 

The bm'eau heretofore has advocated the organization of classes 
in industrial plants where these classes are conducted under the 
supervision of the local school authorities. At a conference in 
Chicago during the year, called at the instance of the bureau of 
Naturalization, the director of the foreign classes stated that the 
school authorities of Chicago would furnish 1,000 teachers for the 
organization of these classes. Since that time the bureau and the 
commercial and industrial forces in Chicago have been perfecting 
plans for the maximum enrollment of employees in industrial plants 
m classes, where the space is provided by the employer either in 
his plant or adjacent thereto. Night classes as a name is a mis- 
nomer, for the development of this work has gone so far that it is now 
conceded classes should be formed at any place, at any hour of the 
day, and red tape cut to accomphsh this grand objective. To at- 
tain the desired result, the bureau has issued instructions to its, 
field officers to cooperate in every way with the employers of 
large numbers of foreign-born laborers. Specifically it has in- 
structed them to arrange for naturalization papers to be filled 
out at the place of employment, to instruct those who may be se- 
lected by the employer to carry on this work, so that all the em- 
ployees may be given an opportunity to do most of the work 
m connection with the fihng of naturalization papers at the place 
of employment. There will then be left but the signature and exe- 
cution to the papers in the office of the clerk of the court, as re- 
quired by the naturalization laws. This throws the door of oppor- 



20 WOBK OF THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS 

tunity open to hundreds of thousands of foreigners who are timid* 
diffident, backward, and yet otherwise quahfied to take the initial 
step to declare their intention. Undoubtedly it will result in every 
foreigner applying for American citizenship, wherever those con- 
nected with the work efficiently and thoroughly perform their duties. 
This arrangement brings into the classes a large number of foreigners 
who are candidates for citizenship. It^ enables the bureau more 
effectively to cooperate with the public schools by distributing a 
larger number of textbooks. It also creates in the classroom the 
spirit of Americanism as the dominant spirit. Heretofore but 20 
per cent of the foreigners in the night classes were candidates for 
citizenship. The other 80 per cent were noncandidates. These 
foreigners newly declaring their intention under this arrangement 
serve as feeders to these classes and are overcoming the noncandi- 
date influence and thereby decreasing the number of noncandi- 
dates. The officers of the bureau and the Chicago Association 
of Commerce, through its Americanization committees, representing 
over 6,000 business men, manufacturers, and employers of labor, 
are working out this plan in the most satisfactory manner, in con- 
junction with the clerks of the naturahzation courts in Chicago. 

The bureau is omitting this year the detailed references to any of 
the peculiarly interesting situations in various parts of the country, 
such as heretofore it has presented. The reports received have 
been many and most interesting. Of far greater interest, however, 
are the reports that have been received snowing the reaction upon 
the receipt of the Student's Textbook and Teacher's Manual. These 
books have been prepared and are known to be pedagogically and 
mechanically not just what trained school men and school women 
will ultimately desire. One of the leading authorities in the work 
of teaching the immigrant has pronounced the books as "a thou- 
sand times better" than any heretofore available. The books have 
been distributed with an invitation for their criticism. The bureau 
believes the criticism will be fuU, free, and submitted with the 
genuine interest desired for the betterment of the instruction until 
this official standard course for citizenship teaching meets all the de- 
sires of the public schools and the Bureau of Naturalization and at 
the same time the needs of the millions of foreigners who are poten- 
tial candidates for American citizenship. 

In addition to the textbook and certificate of graduation, the 
bureau is perfecting plans to distribute without charge, or at the 
most a nominal cost to cover expenses, motion pictures for projection 
in the classes composed of the foreigners who are candidates and the 
foreigners who are not candidates for citizenship. These motion 
pictures wiU consist of films depicting the activities of the Federal 
Government that are being carried on in behalf and in the interest 
of the individual. They wQl relate to the development of interests 
of the foreigner who labors underground in developing the raw 
materials of the Nation, to the farmer who produces the necessities 
of life, to those who would go upon the farms of the country, mil- 
lions of acres of which are available but of the means to reach which 
the foreigner is in ignorance. They wiU consist also of pictures to 
inspire a patriotic regard for the loyalty and the devotion to thi& 
Government. They wiU be exhibited in conjunction with the lessons 



WITH THE BUBJBAU OF NATUBALIZATION. 21 

which the standard course in citizenship affords, and illustrative of 
the activities of the bureaus and departments in Washington, the 
national legislative bodies, and other functions and activities. 

The whole purpose of the Bureau of Naturalization in its joint 
action with the public schools is to arouse the national sense in the 
mind of the foreigner while the State governments shall enlighten 
the foreigner upon the forms of State and municipal government. 
To accomplish this, the bureau urges the preparation bj each State 
of a textbook treating of the State, county, and municipal forms of 
government that will be a companion piece to the standard course in 
citizenship instruction Congress has authorized to be prepared and 
distributed through this bureau. 

The bureau is looking forward to the coming year as a year of great 
accomplishment. It is a year in the perspective of great promise. 
Americanism is in the fore as never at any time in the history of the 
Government. In this war America has its mission to perform. It 
has been all along for America at the proper time to enter the war to 
save the world from destruction, to preserve to the individual all 
that he holds sacred and makes life worth the living. It has been 
given to America to overthrow autocracy, and its advent upon the 
theater of action has taken place at the time when it was made clear 
that without America and American ideals autocracy with all of the 
horrors of autocratic power would dominate. The task will not be 
complete, and will not be completed to the satisfaction of any think- 
ing, patriotic, loyal American when it is completed by the resort to 
arms in the sanguinary struggle now being carried on. It can not 
be complete without the transformation of every permanent resident 
of the United States into an American citizen in spirit, in thought, 
and in life, whether he be born under the Stars and Stripes or under 
the fold of some other flag. The task is an American task, to be 
performed at home, and it should be accomplished with the return 
of the soldiers to our shores and to their vocations. They should be 
welcomed home to a Nation of but one allegiance among its citizens 
and residents.
